This is a crazy time to be alive, let alone being a parent and dealing with this pandemic. One of the things that comes with being a parent is worrying about your child’s well-being, and when the world has been overtaken with a pandemic, you worry even more.
But I’m not turning this into yet another […]
Our world and lives have changed dramatically in the time span of just a few weeks. And we are now ALL thinking of our health and well being in a very serious way. And for most of us, whether we like it or not, this virus has overtaken our lives in many ways: it’s all […]
Here I find myself in week 8 – boy that went by fast – it’s already week 8! Week 6 was fairly uneventful, just a recuperation of week 4’s carbs. You know, the saying is true: the older you get, the harder it becomes. That applies in this case to a few extra slices of […]
We find ourselves with at least a good month left of winter. Once we get past St. Patty’s Day, winter is over – or at least it should just throw in the towel at that point in my opinion. And that goes for all of the winter bugs, too! By that third week in March […]
Week 4, last week, started off all right, but became a mixed bag. Somehow it became “carb week” – and boy did I feel a difference in my gut. But let me begin by saying that I was reunited with the one and only Masha – the pilates guru of Millerton. I’ve worked with Masha […]
Well, the journey continues. Last week, week 2, was a very busy one at work and just in life in general and I still haven’t mastered all aspects of what I need to master in my new healthier life – but I’m working on it. It is a lifelong project after all and so I’m […]

For me, 2020 meant a separation: that I could separate from the health challenges and near-death experiences that plagued my family in 2019. And that […]
Baby wipes – a necessity when you have a baby. And as your child grows, you realize more and more uses for them – so much so that it becomes hard to live without them. That said, not all wipes are created equal.
When you’re a first-time parent you’re navigating brand new territory and you’re not […]
Mom guilt. Mom judgment. They do exist – and they’re both horrible!
I had heard of mom guilt but I wouldn’t understand the full extent of it until I became a mom myself. And mom judgment – phew! Let me tell you; it’s dam harsh!! Wow.
Let’s start with the judgment and let’s just clear the air […]
Morgan’s is a little hide-away on the outskirts of Lakeville, CT, at the Interlaken Inn. They have recently renovated their restaurant and it’s a great little place to go for meetings, dates, and family dinners.
We went there on a beautiful summer Sunday evening, with kids and in-laws in tow. There were a handful of folks […]
